    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    Variations on the Author

    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more sophisticated methods

    We have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used

    Keabsahan Jaminan Hak Tanggungan yang Dibuat Tanpa Persetujuan Mantan Istri (Studi Putusan Mahkamah Agung Nomor 222K/PDT/2017)

    No full text
    Hak Tanggungan adalah hak jaminan yang dibebankan pada hak atas tanah sebagaimana dimaksud dalam Undang – Undang Nomor 5 Tahun 1960 tentang Peraturan Dasar Pokok – Pokok Agraria, berikut atau tidak berikut benda – benda lain yang merupakan satu kesatuan dengan tanah itu, untuk pelunasan utang tertentu, yang memberikan kedudukan yang diutamakan kepada kreditur tertentu terhadap kreditur – kreditur lain. Hak Tanggungan dapat diagunkan sebagai jaminan dari pihak debitur dalam pemberian kredit oleh pihak bank (kreditur). Pada praktiknya, dituangkan dalam bentuk perjanjian kredit sebagai perjanjian pokok kemudian diikuti dengan perjanjian jaminan kebendaan sebagai perjanjian tambahan (accesoir). Tidak menutup kemungkinan adanya sengketa terkait kewenangan dalam pemberian jaminan Hak Tanggungan oleh pasangan suami istri yang sudah bercerai sebagaimana dalam putusan Mahmakah Agung Nomor 222K/PDT/2017. Penulisan skripsi ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui dan memahami aturan mengenai benda jaminan yang berasal dari harta bersama milik pasangan suami istri yang sudah bercerai, mengetahui dan memahami perbuatan suami yang sudah bercerai dengan istri menjaminkan harta bersama tanpa sepengetahuan mantan istri merupakan bentuk perbuatan melawan hukum, mengetahui dan memahami dasar pertimbangan hakim (Rasio decidendi) pada putusan Mahkamah Agung Nomor 222 K/Pdt/2017 telah sesuai dengan Hukum Perbankan di Indonesia. Tinjauan Pustaka dalam skripsi ini berisi uraian atau penjelasan yang relevan terkait judul karya tulis ilmiah yang dibuat yang meliputi penjelasan terkait pengertian-pengertian, teori, konsep, dan lain sebagainya. Terkait demikian, pada skripsi ini tinjauan pustaka berisi penjelasan sebagaimana yang dimaksud meliputi pengertian keabsahan hukum, pengertian jaminan, aturan tentang jaminan, sifat perjanjian jaminan, bentuk jaminan, pengertian hak tanggungan, asas – asas hak tanggungan, aturan tentang hak tanggungan, subyek hak tanggungan, serta objek hak tanggungan. Pembahasan dalam skripsi ini berisi jawaban, uraian, dan penjelasan terkait rumusan masalah sebagaimana yang dimaksud yaitu: 1) pengaturan mengenai benda jaminan yang berasal dari harta bersama milik pasangan suami istri yang sudah bercerai dalam Hukum Perbankan; 2) perbuatan suami yang sudah bercerai dengan istri menjaminkan harta bersama merupakan bentuk perbuatan melawan hukum. 3) Ratio Decidendi hakim pada putusan Mahkamah Agung Nomor 222 K/Pdt/2017 menurut hukum perbankan di Indonesia. Berdasarkan hasil pembahasan maka dapat disimpulkan yakni : Pertama, pemberian benda jaminan yang berasal dari harta bersama pasangan suami istri yang sudah bercerai tidak diatur dalam Hukum Perbankan, baik dalam Undang – Undang Nomor 7 Tahun 1992 tentang Perbankan, Undang – Undang Nomor 10 Tahun 1998 tentang Perubahan atas Undang – Undang Nomor 7 Tahun 1992 tentang Perbankan, Peraturan Bank Indonesia, maupun Peraturan Otoritas Jasa Keuangan. Kedua, Perbuatan mantan suami (Zainul arifin) dalam putusan Mahkamah Agung Nomor 222 K/PDT/2017 dapat dikatakan sebagai perbuatan melawan hukum karena telah memenuhi unsur – unsur perbuatan melawan hukum sesuai dengan ketentuan pasal 1365 KUHPerdata yaitu tentang Perbuatan Melawan Hukum. Ketiga, Ratio Decidendi atau pertimbangan hukum hakim pada putusan Mahkamah Agung Nomor 222K/PDT/2017 dalam memutus perkara tidak sesuai dengan hukum perbankan di Indonesia. Hal tersebut dapat dilihat bahwa pemenuhan jaminan sebagai syarat kredit diatur dalam pasal 8 Undang – Undang Nomor 10 Tahun 1998 tentang Perubahan atas Undang – Undang Nomor 7 Tahun 1992 tentang Perbankan. Pemenuhan jaminan tersebut dibingkai dalam suatu perjanjian jaminan kebendaan sehingga sah atau tidaknya perjanjian tersebut haruslah memenuhi ketentuan 1320 KUHPerdata. Perjanjian jaminan kebendaan antara Zainul Arifin dan Bank Danamon tidak memenuhi syarat sah perjanjian sesuai ketentuan pasal 1320 KUHPerdata yaitu suatu sebab yang halal karena melanggar ketentuan pasal 36 ayat (1) Undang – Undang Perkawinan dan pasal 8 ayat (1) Undang – Undang Hak Tanggungan maka perjanjian jaminan tersebut batal demi hukum. Adapun saran yang penulis berikan yaitu : Pertama, Pemerintah hendaknya membuat peraturan mengenai unifikasi perkreditan perbankan guna menjamin kepastian hukum bagi semua pihak. Hal ini dilakukan karena mengenai perkreditan perbankan berkaitan dengan peraturan perundang – undangan lainnya Peraturan perkreditan yang berlaku selama ini berpedoman pada berbagai ketentuan seperti buku ketiga KUHPerdata, Undang – Undang Nomor 7 Tahun 1992 tentang Perbankan sebagaimana telah diubah dengan Undang – Undang Nomor 10 Tahun 1998 tentang Perubahan atas Undang – Undang Nomor 7 Tahun 1992 tentang Perbankan serta peraturan perundang – undangan lainnya yang pada umumnya menimbulkan terjadinya penerapan yang tidak konsisten dan pada saatnya kurang memberikan kepastian hukum bagi para pihak. Kedua, Hendaknya nasabah yang akan membuat perjanjian kredit dengan pihak bank namun sudah bercerai dengan pasangannya dan ingin menggunakan harta bersama sebagai agunan yang akan diberikan ke bank, diharapkan untuk menyelesaikan pembagian harta bersama di Pengadilan yang berwenang. Hal itu dilakukan agar tidak terjadi sengketa yang tidak diinginkan di masa yang akan datang. Ketiga, pihak bank hendaknya lebih teliti serta berhati - hati lagi dalam menerapkan prinsip kehati – hatian yang disebut dengan 5C guna menjalankan kegiatan usahanya salah satunya dalam hal pemberian agunan sebagai jaminan kredit oleh debitur kepada bank. Alangkah baiknya apabila bank meneliti lebih dalam kepemilikan agunan yang diberikan kepada pihak bank untuk menghindari adanya sengketa yang berpeluang muncul dimasa yang akan datang. Kepada majelis hakim Mahkamah Agung dalam memutus sengketa terkait jaminan hak tanggungan dalam hukum perbankan diharapkan agar lebih teliti lagi serta berhati – hati. Pada dasarnya hukum perbankan sendiri tidak terlepas dari hukum perjanjian sehingga tetap merujuk pada syarat sahnya perjanjian. Putusan Majelis hakim pada putusan Mahkamah Agung Nomor 222K/PDT/2017 hendaknya berpegang pada hukum yang ditentukan oleh pasal 1320 KUH Perdata mengenai syarat sah perjanjian. Mengingat bahwasannya Kitab Undang – Undang Hukum Perdata memiliki kedudukan yang lebih tinggi dibandingkan dengan Surat Edaran Mahkamah Agung meskipun Surat Edaran Mahkamah Agung juga memiliki kekuatan hukum yang mengikat

    Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902

    No full text
    In Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
